You don't need the TS source or to compile anything. Everything is
precompiled for you. You do however need a Linux with some tools
installed to make a TS build. Any of the major distros will do. Next
you fetch the TS distro (pick 2.2.1rc1) and unpack it. To build you
own images:
1) Edit build.conf
2) run "./build"
3) edit and rename thinstation.conf.sample
All image types you'll find in the folder boot-images/.
To merge a newer firefox, you download the precompiled firefox tar.gz
(or tgz?) file from mozilla and unpack it and take the files you want.
